TREASURER: Antony Wong LAND USE & PUBLIC DEVELOPMENT New York City Council Intro 2186-2020: A local law to amend the New York City charter, in relation to requiring a comprehensive long-term plan. This bill would create a ten-year comprehensive planning cycle connecting budget, land use, and strategic planning processes. The cycle would include a review of City conditions, including racial and socio-economic disparities, access to opportunity, displacement risk, short- and long- term risks, impacts of prior development and budget decisions, and current and projected infrastructure needs. A Citywide Goals Statement would set targets for housing, jobs, open space, resiliency infrastructure, City facilities, schools, transportation, public utilities, and other infrastructure. Whereas: 1. On December 16th, 2020, with little publicity and no circulation to the public or community boards, New York City Council Speaker Corey Johnson released a document entitled Planning Together: A New Comprehensive Planning Framework for New York City, followed by Bill 2186-2020, introduced in the City Council on December 17, 2020. 2. This bill is now being fast-tracked to the February 23, 2021 meeting of City Council Committee on Government Operations, to be voted on by the City Council as early as March, with insufficient input at the community-board level—especially in light of the need to continue with Zoom-only meetings. 3. This is in stark contrast to the lengthy educational process undertaken by the 2019 Charter Revision Commission, whose slogan was “You Can Vote On That.” 4. Adoption of the long-term comprehensive plan as it is now written would result in major changes to the public review process that are not fully understood at this time. 5. This would add a completely new layer of bureaucracy to a city that is already facing severe and unprecedented budget constraints. 6. Implementation would require resources—both economic and staff—that community boards do not currently have, in order for them to be able to participate in this complex and lengthy process. 4 Therefore be it resolved that CB2, Man. strongly and unequivocally recommends that City Council’s plan to vote on Intro 2186 as early as March be delayed until there has been time for truly extensive outreach to, and dialogue with, community boards and related stakeholders; and Be it further resolved that no public hearings or reviews on the part of the City Council be held on Intro 2186 until there have been public presentations by the council members or their surrogates, to community boards and other stakeholders so that there is a comprehensive understanding of the details of and basic underlying reasoning for the changes; and Be it finally resolved that this fundamental change to New York City land use procedures and processes, which requires a City Charter modification, be treated as the 2019 Charter revisions; that is, with city- wide, open hearings, public feedback opportunities. Vote: Unanimous, with 44 Board members in favor. LANDMARKS AND PUBLIC AESTHETICS FIRST LANDMARKS MEETING 1. *351 Canal Street- Application is to construct an infill of the areaway to create a stair enclosure. Whereas: A. The addition fills an unbuilt area at the rear of the building in order to provide a second egress stair shaft; and B. The construction has no adverse impact on this distinguished building; and C. There is very minimal visibility from a public thoroughfare which does not cause any harm; now Therefore, be it resolved that CB2, Man. recommends approval of the application. Vote: Unanimous, with 44 Board members in favor. 2. *66 W. 9th St. – Application is to alter the areaway and replace A secondary stoop for barrier-free access. Whereas: A. The proposal is to install a lift and add a flight of stairs along the areaway and to build a landing over the existing stairs and stoop to a retail space; and B. The modifications are within the area of the existing areaway and the existing stairs and stoop; and C. The design of the addition, the railings, and the lift in its storage position are respectful of the building; and D. The facing of the stairs and the landing are without detail, apart from a recessed niche, and the design profits from the proposed detailing and rustication, provided that the work is executed with careful craftsmanship; and 5 E. The property would be enhanced by the planting of a tree in the existing pit; now Therefore be it resolved that CB2, Man. recommends Approval of the application provided that the facing of the stairs and the landing have detailing and rustication executed with the careful craftsmanship evident in the building.

  • 154 WEST 14Th STREET BUILDING, 154-162 West 14Th Street (Aka 51-59 Seventh Avenue), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 28, 2011, Designation List 444 LP-2419 154 WEST 14th STREET BUILDING, 154-162 West 14th Street (aka 51-59 Seventh Avenue), Manhattan. Built 1912-13; Herman Lee Meader, architect; New York Architectural Terra Cotta Co., terra cotta. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 609, Lot 7. On June 22, 2010, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 154 West 14th Street Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Three people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of New York Assemblymember Deborah J. Glick, the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, and the Historic Districts Council. Summary The 154 West 14th Street Building (1912-13), a 12-story speculative loft structure constructed for lawyer-banker and real estate developer Leslie R. Palmer, was the first completed New York City design by architect Herman Lee Meader, with whom Palmer collaborated on five projects. The building’s location at the prominent intersection of 14th Street and Seventh Avenue anticipated the southward extension of Seventh Avenue and its new subway line, and benefitted from its proximity and direct access to the Holland Tunnel and west side freight terminals. Arranged in a tripartite base-shaft-capital composition with large window areas, it is a striking and unusual example of a large loft building partly clad in terra cotta – on the three-story base, on the spandrels between the white-brick piers of the midsection, and on the upper portion.

Located at Waverly and MacDougal Streets, just off the Northwest corner of Washington Square Park, it is the sole survivor from the city’s golden age of hôtellerie in the lower 5th Avenue vicinity. The 100% smoke-free property features 152 guest rooms, an intimate lobby, 24-hour front desk service, fitness room, lobby bar and complimentary continental breakfast at the highly acclaimed North Square Restaurant & Lounge. Free Wi-Fi™ is available throughout the hotel. A Haven for Writers, Artists and Visitors for More than a Century The Washington Square hotel was built in 1902 as a residential hotel named the Hotel Earle after its first owner, Earl S. L’Amoureux. The hotel occupied a single, eight-story, red brick building on Waverly Place, in the heart of affluent Greenwich Village, now an historic landmark district. In 1903, L’Amoureux sold the hotel to Frederick D. Fricke. Fricke, in 1908, built an identical, connecting building to create a grand apartment hotel, complete with reading rooms, restaurant, and banquet facilities. Four years later he added a ninth floor and, in 1917 he built an adjoining three story building, bringing the hotel to MacDougal Street, at the northwest corner of picturesque Washington Square.

  • Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity in the News
    Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity In The News Virtual Restaurant Business Revolutionizing Traditional Food Delivery The growing convenience of home food delivery through services such as Seamless and GrubHub has prompted the launch of what can be best described as “virtual restaurants.” One company Green Summit Group currently operates 2-kitchens and boasts 8 “restaurant” brands, yet is void of any storefronts. The business model is banking on the projection that most New York City dwellers won’t care or realize that the food is not being prepared in a traditional restaurant. Green Summit has eliminated the burden of managing retail spaces, while also further benef ting from its ability to shift menu items more quickly to cater to the fast-evolving preferences of consumers by creating another online-branded “restaurant” that appeals to the f avor of the moment. If a particular brand does not meet f nancial expectations it is easily scrapped, incurring a relatively low cost of failure. Currently in expansion mode, in addition to existing kitchens in Midtown and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, the Green Summit plans to open 4 additional kitchens in the Financial District, Downtown Brooklyn, the Upper East Side, and the East Village in 2016 in order to be within delivery range of 90% of New York’s online food-ordering population according to the company’s projections. Generating about $10 million in revenue in 2015, expansion plans are reportedly expected to triple revenue in 2016. Success of the company launched about 2 and a-half years ago may be short-lived in the opinion of some skeptics of the virtual model, pointing out that consumers want to engage with the restaurant brand.

    The Far West Village and Greenwich Village Waterfront: A Proposal for Preservation to the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission September, 2004 Submitted by the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation 232 East 11th Street New York, NY 10003 212/475-9585 www.gvshp.org The Far West Village and Greenwich Village Waterfront: Proposal to the Landmarks Preservation Commission Introduction The Far West Village, located along the Hudson River waterfront between Horatio and Barrow Streets, is where Greenwich Village began, home to its earliest European settlements. Within its dozen or so blocks can be found a treasure trove of historic buildings and resources spanning about a hundred years and a broad range of styles and building types. However, the district’s character is united by several overarching commonalities and punctuated by several distinctive features that define its unique significance, including: its role as a unique intact record of the only mixed maritime/industrial and residential neighborhood along the Hudson River waterfront; its unusually large collection of several maritime, industrial, and residential building types not found elsewhere; its collection of several buildings which were pioneering instances of adaptive re-use of industrial buildings for residential purposes; its numerous key industrial complexes which shaped New York City’s development; the particular buildings and streets within its boundaries which served as a record of several important moments in the history of industry, shipping, and New York City; and several exceptional buildings which are noteworthy due to their age, unique composition, early manifestation of a subsequently common building type, or historical and architectural significance.
